Food Supplements for the Immune System

Staying healthy and keeping your gut happy is always a priority, right? So, let's talk about gut soldiers, EpiCor, the immune system, bacteria, and even cows from the 19th century. But what does all this have to do with your well-being?

Well, as much as 70% (!) of your body's immune response is located in your gut. This gives you every reason to consume things that create the best conditions for maintaining a healthy gut flora. You have trillions of bacteria in your intestines – you could call them tiny soldiers – fighting daily to keep you healthy. They need the right fuel to keep up the fight.

Defence - for your immune system

Great Earth's immune support product, Defence, contains vitamin C, vitamin D, and zinc, all of which contribute to the normal function of the immune system. It also includes the patented ingredient, EpiCor®.

This takes us back to a young farmer in the USA in the late 19th century. He noticed by chance that his cows, which were munching on breadcrumbs mixed with old milk, stayed much healthier than those eating conventional feed. This practice was developed and spread to other farmers.

The technique quickly evolved, and later, a similar type of product began to be produced for humans with remarkable results. It was noted that those exposed to this yeast culture seemed to maintain their general well-being more consistently.

Today, EpiCor® is a patented fermentate consisting of proteins, fibre, polyphenols, vitamins, amino acids, antioxidants, beta-glucans, and other metabolites.
